Without a shadow of doubt, pension education works - for your scheme members, and for you.

In 2006, financial education charity, Life Academy*, began a series of one-day workshops, designed to motivate individuals to make decisions about their retirement planning.

Data was collected from participants at various stages. At the end of the workshop there was a 140% increase in intention to take action. Just three months later, the final evaluation revealed extraordinary results:

45% had sought financial planning advice

45% had increased their savings / investments for retirement

25% of those eligible had increased their contributions to their pension

77% had looked at their occupational / personal pension fund statement and forecast

59% had obtained a forecast of their state pension

27% had changed their intentions about retirement (with the majority intending to work longer)

Pension education in the workplace is high on the list of priorities in the Government’s pension reforms.
